My right hand side rear alloy hub was fine, however the left hand side alloy hub was a bit tight. The solution is to add a small metal shim
between the two bearings (doesn't matter which one you pick). It's now runs freely.
The alloy hexes I got came with small shims, which I originally put between the hex and the outer bearing. I ended up not using them as they're not required (kit doesn't come with any as standard) and they mean you have to be careful fitting the hexes as they can bind a bit.

Could be a manufacturing error, and not just an ansmann one because I had some rayspeed hubs that on one side the bearing fitted perfectly and on the other they were a nightmare to get in/get out. Could be you have got an out of tolerance hub?
